This was produced by tapping on a stethoscope which had an earbud pressed against a Shure SM57 mic. Low pass filter applied, as well as compression and a gate. Chorus added. Used a recording cassette deck as a preamp going into an M-Audio Audiophile USB soundcard.
Note: If you're having problems listening to this clip, the cutoff frequency of your speaker set may be too high(solution: new speakers). The signal strength exists almost entirely in the very low frequencies, so you may need a sub-woofer to hear it. Otherwise, try turning your speaker volume all the way up. Doing so may saturate the signal and at least allow you to hear the harmonics of the signal caused by the distortion. I don't recommend it, but you'll at least maybe be able to hear something.

xime and ruwan - If you can't hear it, then it is likely an issue with the low frequency response of your speakers...this sound has very little energy above about 140 Hz.

Like a couple of other people, I can't hear the clip unless I run the analog out from my computer into my stereo and then turn it WAY up. Some kind of digital level problem? I'm not a sound person at all, just trying to use the clip in a video project. When I do turn it up, it sounds great - pretty much what I'm looking for.

I cannot hear it. Not on the web, and not when I download it. What could be the problem? other sounds in my computer and in this page are working well.
